International status: US: Monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate, monopotassium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate and trisodium phosphate are not listed specifically 4 in the Schedules to the US Controlled Substances Act and are not mentioned anywhere on the DEA website.
United Nations: The substances are not listed on the Yellow List - List of Narcotic Drugs under International Control, the Green List - List of Psychotropic Substances under International Control, nor the Red List - List of Precursors and Chemicals Frequently Used in the Illicit Manufacture of Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances under International Control.
Canadian Status: Monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate, monopotassium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate and trisodium phosphate are not listed in the schedules to the CDSA. The substances are used in a variety of applications, such as, but not limited to, food additives, fertilizers, and buffering agents. These substances are salts of phosphoric acid, and are not captured under item 22 “Hypophosphorous acid, its salts and derivatives” of Part 1 of Schedule VI to the CDSA. These substances are not structurally similar to any other substances listed in the CDSA.
Recommendation: Monoammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, monocalcium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate, monopotassium phosphate, dipotassium phosphate, tripotassium phosphate, monosodium phosphate, disodium phosphate and trisodium phosphate are not included under the schedules to the CDSA and are not controlled substances.
